The program "Sports x Humanity: Guided by the bond between jockey and horse to the dream Derby - Jockey Kitamura Yuichi," which follows jockey Kitamura Yuichi, who rode Croix du Nord to victory in the 92nd Japan Derby held at Tokyo Racecourse (Fuchu City) on June 1st, will be broadcast on NHK BS from 11:25 pm on July 7th.

Jockey Kitamura broke his spine and other bones in more than 10 places in his body in a fall from a horse four years ago. Since his return, he has not been able to achieve the results he had hoped for.

At that time, the jockey was entrusted with the reins of the highly talented Croix du Nord. However, in the much-anticipated Satsuki Sho, the horse was unable to fully demonstrate its power and lost. With thoughts of the people and family who supported him in those difficult times in his heart, jockey Kitamura takes on the big stage of the Derby.
